Bruce Charlton has an epiphany while reviewing a book:
There is a lesson to be learned here. Lachman's previous stance was broadly
'agnostic' - at least, that was the perspective from which his books were
written. He seems like a decent kind of man, worked hard, wrote clearly, did
useful stuff...
Yet it was always clear that Lachman shared the mainstream 'anything but Christianity' kind of reflexive leftist/ progressive/ pro-sexual revolution perspective... which is all-but universal among those active in the perennialist, spiritual, esoteric, neo-pagan, self-help, personal development world.
Here and now, this agnostic stance of suspended judgement is non-viable: things have come to a point; because of the pervasive domination of New Left/ Political Correctness in all major social institutions everyone is incrementally being brought to a fork in the path, a decision yes or no.
I see this all around me. We live in a world of spiritual warfare. It cannot be hidden from, choice cannot be evaded. We cannot 'keep our heads down' because everyone is located and they must stand-up and raise their hands (and voices) to endorse and promote the current, evolving Leftist totalitarian narrative in all its respects - or else...

This is why I pay very little
attention to atheists, agnostics, and pagans who believe they are opposed to
globalism. Their belief is sincere, but they simply don't understand the true
nature of the war that presently engulfs Man. Despite their intentions, I
expect that many, not most of them, will ultimately gravitate to the other side
when push comes to shove.
Because, at the end of the day, you must either bend the knee to Jesus Christ or to the Prince of this World. You will be forced to choose a side and there will be a price. Standing proudly on your own is an illusion and it was never an option.
Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to turn ‘a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law— a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’
One is always well-served by paying attention to Mr. Charlton's observations. He correctly saw through Jordan Peterson as well.

It is all very well for me to call Jordan Peterson an antichrist, and to
warn people off taking seriously someone who is a merely a psychotherapist,
left-libertarian, atheist... but the rejoinder is that 'who else' is there in
the modern world getting mainstream coverage that is talking as much common
sense?
And the answer is: nobody. Nobody else who has comparable fame and impact is any better than Jordan Peterson - and yet Jordan Peterson is qualitatively inadequate for the needs of this time: he is a waste of time, a blind alley, a red herring; thus, in our state-of-emergency - he does more harm than good...
For people to regard JP as a significant thinker is evidence that they have no idea of the severity of the situation here and now. They have no idea of the pervasiveness and depth of corruption in a society that officially advocates and enforces moral and aesthetic inversion; which punishes truth and systematically generates an interlocking structure of lies. We are in a very bad way indeed - advanced en route to self-chosen damnation on a mass scale.
